Are you tired of answers that ignore the root causes of human suffering? This selection of writings by Eberhard Arnold, who left a career and the established church in order to live out the gospel, calls us to a completely different way. <p/><b>Be warned: </b>Arnold doesn't approach discipleship as the route to some benign religious fulfillment, but as a revolution--a transformation that begins within and spreads outward to encompass every aspect of life. Arnold writes in the same tradition of radical obedience to the gospel as his contemporaries Karl Barth and Dietrich Bonhoeffer.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><strong>Intensely reverent and thought-provoking</strong>, <em>God's Revolution</em> is highly recommended for theology studies collections. --<strong>James A. Cox, </strong><em><strong>Midwest Book Review</strong><br><br><strong>Pacifist though he may be, </strong>Arnold takes no prisoners. His church has little in common with the accommodating Christianity that is so dominant in our culture. As you read you will find yourself thinking, "I have never seen a church like the one he describes." That, of course, is exactly the point. <strong>--Stanley Hauerwas, </strong> <em>from the Introduction</em><br><br><b>Arnold's writing</b> has all the simple, luminous, direct vision into things that I have come to associate with his name. It has the authentic ring of a truly evangelical Christianity and moves me deeply. It stirs to repentance and renewal. <b>--Thomas Merton, </b> <i>The Seven Storey Mountain</i><br><br><b>Arnold's writings</b> are a light of hope in an age which seems very dark. May they no longer remain hidden under a bushel, but shine out to be heeded by many. <b>--Jürgen Moltmann</b><br><br><b>The aim of God</b> in history is the creation of an all-inclusive community of persons with Christ as its prime sustainer and most glorious inhabitant. Arnold's vision incarnates just such a community. <b>--Richard Foster, </b> <i>Celebration of Discipline</i><br><br><b>The undeniable power</b> of Arnold's writing owes to the fact that there is no difference between what he professed to believe and the way he lived. It gives his words a resonance and depth, a right to be heard. <b>--Juli Loesch Wiley, </b> <i>New Oxford Review</i><br><br><b>The witness of Eberhard Arnold</b> is a much needed corrective to an American church that has lost the vital, biblical connection between belief and obedience. <b>--Jim Wallis, </b> <i>Sojourners</i><br>
